Problem connecting 50L5200u to a laptop
I am attempting to connect my 50L5200u tv to my Acer laptop. I've done it previously with an HDMI cable but now it won't work. I purchased a new HDMI cable and it still doesn't work. I've tried all three HDMI ports on my tv to no avail. I'm running Windows 8.1 on my laptop. When I hook everything up, the tv just says no signal detected. Please help!
Did you reboot the TV (unplug for at least 10 sec.) and computer?
I had an incident last night with my Blu-Ray and the TV reading No Signal Detected. I rebooted everything including my A/V receiver and all works fine again.

Problem connecting HP ZR2740w to laptop
I recently purchased a HP ZR2740w monitor to use as a second monitor for my laptop (HP Pavilion dv7). I did not realize that I would not be able to hook the monitor up to my laptop as the monitor has only DisplayPort and DVI-D ports and my laptop only has VGA and HDMI (should have read the product info more carefully but I didn't think I would have a problem hooking a HP monitor to a HP laptop).
My question is, will any cables, such as an HDMI to DVI cable, or any other adapters, work to connect these two? I have not been able to find any info on this on the internet.
I tried a VGA to DVI adapter on a spare VGA cable I had lying around but that did not work (though I could be doing something wrong).
Thanks,
KevinDVI-D and HDMI use a common set of digital signals and therefore you should be able to connect your HP ZR2740w to your HP Pavilion dv7 laptop using a HDMI-to-DVI cable. The VGA port and DVI-to-VGA adapter won't because the analog signals are on different pins than the DVI digital signals.
From Wikipedia;
Compatibility with DVI
An HDMI to DVI adapter
A DVI to HDMI adapter
HDMI is backward-compatible with single-link Digital Visual Interface digital video (DVI-D or DVI-I, but not DVI-A). No signal conversion is required when an adapter or asymmetric cable is used, so there is no loss of video quality.[5]
From a user's perspective, an HDMI display can be driven by a single-link DVI-D source, since HDMI and DVI-D define an overlapping minimum set of supported resolutions and framebuffer formats to ensure a basic level of interoperability. In the reverse case a DVI-D monitor would have the same level of basic interoperability unless there are content protection issues with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP), not supported by DVI, or the HDMI color encoding is in component color space YCbCr which is not supported by DVI, instead of RGB. An HDMI source such as a Blu-ray player may demand HDCP-compliance of the display, and refuse to output HDCP-protected content to a non-compliant display.[117] A further complication is that there is a small amount of display equipment, such as some high-end home theater projectors, designed with HDMI inputs but not HDCP-compliant.
Features specific to HDMI, such as remote-control and audio transport, are not available in devices that use legacy DVI-D signalling. However, many devices output HDMI over a DVI connector (e.g., ATI 3000-series and NVIDIA GTX 200-series video cards),[5] and some multimedia displays may accept HDMI (including audio) over a DVI input. Exact capabilities beyond basic compatibility vary from product to product.

Connection iphone with msi laptop: keeps disconnecting and connecting.
I wanted to get a picture from my iphone, and it is the first time I connect the phone to my new msi laptop.
Suddenly, my iphone keeps buzzing, and charging, and stops charging, , this goes very fast , up (connected) and down(disconnected).
I thaught maybe the cable, although the cable worked great yesterday charging my phone through a wall outlet.
I tried another cable, same problem.
Then I took another laptop: connection established after driver was installed.
How come msi laptop behave strange ??
I really hope I can still tell my friends to buy a msi... Can this be fixed with software? I don't want to send it back , after spending so much time installing, troubleshooting... .Quote from: hara_mo on 30-May-15, 03:09:35

Does the cable you try is the official one from the apple store?
Which iphone model do you have and what's the iOS version, iTunes version?

added: same problem connection gps on msi laptop.
installation did not succeed of the new update card.
second time, I held the laptop and followed the installation (while watchin tv), at the end, I moved then, connection was lost en then made back again, and this for a couple of times.
But at the end, card was installed succesfully, luckily, it take hours to download and install the card.
I really hope for a quick solution.
Can you explain how you install the card and what kind of card are you installing?
Are you conneting to the internet through wifi? or you use bluetooth or something else to download the GPS maps or something else? -
I can't connect to Wi-Fi - keeps timing out. No problem connecting from other laptops / phones. Stopped working after I did a system upgrade. What can I do? I am on OS X Yosemite.
Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wireless router.
Step 1
Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
Step 2
Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
Step 3
Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
Step 4
Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
Step 5
In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
Step 6
Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
Step 7
You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
Potential sources of interference
Step 8
Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
Step 9
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC). -
On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server". I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC. It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

my ipad wont accept any passwords, i am unable to connect to my wifi even though my password is correct and other laptops etc have no problem connecting.
The ipad can find my wifi connection but just wont accept the password. connected with no problem in the Apple store.
any suggestions,
thanks.Does the iPad connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

We are on holiday in Mexico. Our iPad2 has no problem connecting to the Internet through our hotel's subscription WiFi network. But, both of our macbookpros can not with the same password. What can we try?
We can join the network, but can not access the Internet. The password is correct. We have tried network assistant and diagnostics, restarting the laptops, re-joining the network. Our iPhone 4s also works all the time.
Same location. Signal strength is good.Since I couldn't figure out a way to edit our original post, here's another potential clue.
Our laptops, when in System Preferences>Network, say "WiFi has the self-assigned IP address of XXXXXXXXX and will not be able to connect to the Internet".

About 30 minutes ago, I was adding some music to the ipod Nano. Everything was working fine. Now, the ipod will not turn on at all. When I connect it to the laptop with the USB, the computer does not even recognize it. The screen has a fant image of the plug on it and it says connected. I followed the procedures for disconnecting it when I was finished with it earlier. Any idea what is going on here???
ThanksIt probably needs to be reset. The procedure is different for different Nano models: http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/assistant/itunes/

There was a problem connecting to the server ... OS 10.8.4 + WD NAS
Dear all,
first my configuration:
iMac from mid 2012, MacOS X Mountain Lion, 10.8.4, iPhoto 09 v. 8.1.2 - all software updates done and up-to-date
MacBook Pro late 2011, MacOS X Mountain Lion, 10.8.4
NAS WD My Book World Edition II (white light), 2 x 1TB (configured RAID : 1TB mirrored), original firmware (01.02.14 with MioNet built on Thu Feb 9 14:11:48 CST 2012 ) NFS, AFP enabled
a win 7 laptop and plenty of other devices
everything on a LAN with GB router + WiFi
I have my iPhoto library on my iMac, but the photos (the originals) stored on the NAS. I have the option "copy photos to library when importing" disabled. So I guess iPhoto has a reference / link in the library to the original files.
Everything used to work fine until some weeks ago. Not sure what happened but suddenly I got the error message "There was a problem connecting to the server ... Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. ..." when I tried to import photos stored on my WD NAS. When I want to display any photo stored on the NAS - same thing.
Now I guess I have a bunch of gray hairs more while trying to get this fixed.
I tried so many of the tips posted everywhere including booting in save mode, deleting the .plist files (first I actually tried to clean them using Xcode first before deleting them), etc. I cleared out KeyChain. I removed all recent entries (folders) and recent servers from the "history". I tried to connect as guest or named user. There are also no "logIn items" pointing to the NAS. I even tried to disable / enable AFP + NFS on the NAS, not to mention countless restarts of all the machines
One other thing I noticed: Before that problem occured I was able to select the NAS in Finder and it would show me all the shares. When I selected one of them it was mounted automatically. When I select it now I get "connecting" for a loooong time and then "Connection Failed". Most of the time (not always!) however I am able to get in via "Go -> Connect To Server - smb://<nas server name>). And suddently after that also selecting the NAS in Finder shows me all the shares! Hoever even this not in 100% of all cases. I can replicate this from the iMac and the MacBook.
I do use an external HD for TimeMachine to back up my data (directly connected via USB). No issues there.
Not I really don't know what to do any more
Do you have any ideas? Did anyone ever get a response from Apple with a useful solution that really hit the core of the issue?
Thank you!SOLVED!! and I want to share the solution which worked for me with everybody here. Ultimately I had to install nettalk 2.2 on my NAS as described here: http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/netatalk2-2-on-whitelight . A nice description on how to do that can be found here: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1102423 .
One last remark: When asked about the "DHX2 login process", I opted to install the original version, so I can confirm this one works too. -
I am having problems connecting to my home wifi with my iphone4s
Over the past couple of weeks I have experienced a problem connecting to my home wifi service (Sky) with my iphone4s although my laptop connects fine. My phone also picks up the wifi at my place of work. At home when in close proximity to the router (netgear) on the phone the network name appears in the wifi settings but on the wifi networks page it does not get a tick against the name (wheel just keeps revolving). I have taken it back to the retailer (Vodaphone) and they recommend it be sent back to Apple (Liverpool or Manchester) as they consider it a hardware fault. I will be without the phone for probably 1-2 weeks and I use it within my working environment regularly.
Has any one any ideas?

ps. If I go down the route of 'forget this Network' will I need to do any resets on the router as I cant find the username and password when I enter my IP address for the router.are u there

I'm having a problem connecting my BlueRay DVD player and other non-Mac devices to my AirPort Express network. Is there a limit on the number of devices I can connect to the wireless network? I never have a problem connecting a new Apple product (AirBook, iPad) and even a basic laptop. Thanks for your help.
The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) can support up to ten (10) simultaneously connected Wi-Fi clients.

i tried for update but when i saw the screen its showing an arrow with a USB cable towards itunes icon, and now i'm not able to do anything, i also tried to connect ipad through my laptop but no use
That message means that you have to restore the iPad now. There was a problem with the update. So connect the iPad to your computer and restore your iPad.
You can read bout it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If that does not work you will need recovery mode. You can read about it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad. -
Hi there can anyone help. I am connected to the Internet by Ethernet but my connection keeps timing out and my network diagnostics shows all green and network connection ok but still no Internet connection. the other wireless laptop in my flat works well. Could the other wireless laptops being used in my flat be affecting my connection. what can I do to get connected, keep connected. Thanks for any ideas out there.
My network connected for a few hours then went back to timing out. I have not changed anything. However there four additional laptop users in my family who do not seem to be having any problems using their wireless connection. Could their film and music downloads be causing the timing out of my connection and if so is there a way I could prioritizes my computer or limit their use?
